Indifference

So much to say
As brief pulse sways


Words and dry ink
Verse on the brink


Thought words feeling
Feel sets thinking


Round and round here
Mood lingers near


Voice and choice stake
Lines concort take


Blunt words or sharp
Some awkward harp


Tact works the sell
Watch how words dwell


Vain ego baits
In anxious wait


A common soup
To grouse and group


We come, we go
Wit and pun show


Each voice knows how
To hurl right now


Kind comments show
A mindful glow


Better to be
A soul wary


Each to fond verse
As tact observes


Critic be kind
Yet speak your mind


No need to fight
Make wrong a right


Each owns a view
Let kind words cue


Keep up your writes
When views lack cites


Know how you feel
In scant reveal


You write for you
Despite poor views


Steal a peek now
Comment comes how?
